Hosea 10:1-8

1IsraelH3478 is a luxuriantH1238 1vineH1612; He producesH7737 fruitH6529 for himself. The moreH7230 his fruitH6529, The moreH7235 altarsH4196 he 2madeH7235; The 3richerH2896 his landH776, The betterH3190 4he madeH3190 the 5memorialH4676 stonesH4676.2Their heartH3820 is 67deceitfulH2505; NowH6258 they must sufferH816 forH816 their 8guiltH816. 9The Lord will 10breakH6202 downH6202 their altarsH4196 And destroyH7703 their memorialH4676 stonesH4676.

3CertainlyH3588 nowH6258 they will sayH559, “We haveH369 11noH369 kingH4428, For we do not revereH3372 the LordH3068. As for the kingH4428, whatH4100 can he doH6213 for us?”4They speakH1696 mere wordsH1697, 12With 13worthlessH7723 oathsH422 they makeH3772 covenantsH1285; And 14judgmentH4941 sproutsH6524 like poisonousH7219 weedsH7219 in the furrowsH8525 of the fieldH7706.5The inhabitantsH7934 of SamariaH8111 will fearH1481 For the 1516calfH5697 of 17Beth-avenH1007. IndeedH3588, its peopleH5971 will mournH56 for it, And its 18idolatrousH3649 priestsH3649 19will cryH1523 outH1523 overH5921 it, OverH5921 its 20gloryH3519, sinceH3588 it has leftH1540 it.6The thing itselfH1571 will be broughtH2986 to 21AssyriaH804 As a giftH4503 ofH4503 tributeH4503 to 2223KingH4428 JarebH3377; EphraimH669 will 24be 25seizedH3947 with shameH1317, And IsraelH3478 will beH954 ashamedH954 of its 26own planH6098.7SamariaH8111 will be 27destroyedH1820 with her kingH4428, Like a twigH7110 on the surfaceH6440 of the waterH4325.8Also the 28highH1116 placesH1116 of AvenH206, the 29sinH2398 of IsraelH3478, will be destroyedH8045; 30ThornsH6975 and thistlesH1863 will growH5927 on their altarsH4196; Then they will 31sayH559 to the mountainsH2022, “CoverH3680 us!” And to the hillsH1389, “FallH5307 on us!”
